CONNECTIONS

What are you connected to?

  1. Cable

  2. Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)

  3. Wireless equipment

BACKBONE!

The ultra-high-bandwidth underlying network operated by MCI, AT&T, Sprint, etc. that connects to the Internet through an Internet service provider.

Bandwidth is how much data, expressed in bits per second (bps), you can send from one computer to another in a given amount of time. The faster your transmissions (or the greater the bandwidth of your connection), the less time you will spend waiting for text, images, sounds, and animated illustrations to upload or download from computer to computer, and the satisfaction you will have with your Internet experience.

INTERNET SERVICES

Each Internet service is implemented on an Internet server by dedicated software known as a daemon. Which are agent programs that run in the background, waiting to act on requests from the outside. In the case of the Internet, daemons support protocols such as the Hypertext Transfer Protocol for the WWW, the PostOffice Protocol, for email, or the File Transfer Protocol for exchanging files.
